The Remnant City - An Ideal Across the Sky Chapter 25 The Eighth Watch Tower
"It won't hurt to investigate more, and we're leaving. Are these people just going to be left here?" The dwarf asked Koka about his plans.
"That's not the case. There's nothing to investigate. I've already investigated it." Koka summoned several clay golems to move the poachers away.
"What, then where is the progress now, destroying the den?" Noel asked.
"Otherwise, don't underestimate the magicians."
After that, the two successfully completed the task and received 80 Lindsays, which was far different from the previous large-scale commission rewards.
However, this female wizard did not intend to write a mission report, leaving it all to Noel.
The dwarf confirmed it and found that the date was of course correct, it was the same day, not the next day.
He felt that when writing a report, he should write down his previous strange experiences and write them in detail.
The bowl was also handed over directly, only the stone beads were not written on and were still in the dimensional bag.
After handing in the report, Noel went to investigate the multi-headed water monster again. He also used the emblem to verify whether his doubts about his current situation were in the previous reality.
It can indeed be connected to other people normally, except for Fageni. It seems to be affected by some powerful force. Since the next action is a real action, there is no problem.
Nurri's Explorers Association and Mage Association have similar archives that store monster information, but Noel can't just go in there.
There may also be libraries and bookstores in the city, so you have to go to the city to try your luck.
From now on, when the dwarf submitted the report, he entrusted the staff to help find similar monster information, and wrote him a detailed description of the murals he had seen before and the monsters he actually saw.
The staff said that this would cost a small amount of contribution and would be carried out as soon as possible. Then Noel asked the other party whether there was a relatively large bookstore or library in the city.
There is no large bookstore or library in Nurri, but there are many small bookstores, and even the grocery store sometimes carries a few novels.
I looked at my pocket watch and saw that it was dusk, April 18th of the eighth year, at 18:30.
Noel said goodbye to the staff, and mentioned that he would come back around tomorrow evening to check on the situation. Then, before the time entered late at night, he first looked around the city for bookstores, and asked the shopkeeper in the store if there were any monster illustrated books or books related to the multi-headed water monster.
.
However, I visited several bookstores and found no such books. I casually dealt with a group of dwarves and went back to sleep. The next day, I also conducted a full day of research on my own before going to the association to inquire about the situation.
Although I didn't find any books about water monsters this time, I did find a book about identifying antiquities. This book recorded the experiences of a historian and antiquities restoration expert from Nurri, including the story about the stone.
Introduction to stone beads.
Noel asked how much the book cost. But the store told him that it only had a one-line description and was not for sale.
He told Noor completely that the context of the stone beads above had no origin. The historian and antiquities restoration expert from Noerri did not write his name and only mentioned his origin.
In addition to describing the appearance, there is only one sentence: The dream carved in stone floats in the world, completely surpassing its ambition, and I don’t know its depth. It can be a dream carved in stone, not a dream recorded in stone. Between gods and things, no one can decide.
For a time, countless knowledge poured into Noel's mind and then disappeared quickly, just like the last time. The difference is that this time only a little bit of content was left, which happened to be the knowledge Noel urgently needed. This thing is the wet dream of Huan Chaos.
, I think it’s related to the realm of dreams.
Noel, who had experienced it once before, was not surprised at all, but was shocked to the point of being unable to move due to the inexplicable mental shock.
In the bookstore, Noel stood motionless with the book in his hands. It took a full three-quarters of an hour before the dwarf recovered, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Guest, it's closing." The clerk came over holding the cat.
"Oh, okay, okay, that's really weird..." Noel apologized to the shopkeeper, and then walked out of the bookstore muttering.
He didn't buy anything. There were not many shops open at this point outside.
However, he had some clues, so Noel walked to the Explorers Association to see how the investigation was going, and by the way, he submitted the sentence he just saw as one of the clues.
Although it is not credible, the association temporarily believes that Noel's experience is abnormal.
And that bowl seems to be able to pour out unlimited water, but it is not a condensed water element, but has a spatial fluctuation reaction.
The association left it for evidence collection and research, and together with Noel's lost sword, the association gave a total of 850 linseys in compensation, and of course emphasized that this was a special case.
There has been no progress in the previously commissioned investigation of the water monster. If there is any progress, we will notify you, but there is little hope.
That's it for today. It's getting late. Noel goes back to rest and think about the sentence he saw during the day and the strange experience that followed.
He also passed this incident and that sentence to Sophia, the smartest person in the team, to see if she had any unique understanding.
Unfortunately, I sent it but no one answered it.
Considering that the only thing on his body that might have some connection was the emblem, Noel showed the emblem to see if there was any reaction to the stone bead. Then Noel's eyes darkened and he fell asleep.
When I woke up again, the stone beads had disappeared and it was already broad daylight.
After confirming the time, Noel found that he could move the emblem to the palm of his hand and manifest the stone beads. At this time, the body would enter the stone statue state. Noel asked Koka to confirm. This form is immune to most physical and elemental attacks, but for
There is no additional protection at the spiritual level.
Time returns to the time when we parted ways in Se'an City.
After Kalin said goodbye to Gabru and Dinefir, he purchased a certain amount of emergency video and daily necessities. There were no decent supply points along the way until the destination was near Yebasa.
He took the certificate to retrieve his weapons in advance, left a message for Alexander and Chester, and left Se'an through the west gate.
It was almost dusk, and when he was alone, Kalin used his A-level mercenary's foot power to run lightly at the edge of the forest.
The demi-human who hid the rabbit ears could see himself living alone in the open air in the future, but before meeting Alexander and the others, Karin had always been alone - not counting Lairen.
[Although I don't mind it that much, you still have to be careful when traveling alone.] Thinking of this, Tutu relaxed his hearing slightly and began to collect various sound information nearby.
In any case, as long as you don't relax your vigilance while sleeping, there will be no monsters that can threaten Karin at the edge of the forest.
In the past three years of adventure, Carlin's strength can be said to be different from what it used to be. It is better to say that it has reached the pinnacle of legend, and he also possesses an artifact. Returning to the state of a lone traveler is even more terrifying - of course
It is for ordinary monsters who cannot open their eyes.
Unfortunately, none of the low-level monsters with blind eyes that were killed along the way produced the core of the Origin in their heads.
December 26th of the seventh year. After leaving the nearest village to Yebasa, I ran for half a day. Light snow began to fall in the gray sky, although the coldness was much lower than the winter in Hawen Prairie.
But the sound of snowflakes falling into the small lake at the foot of the mountain gave Karin a headache.
So Tutu chose to directly suppress his hearing to maintain normality. No matter how strong he is, his ears are still fragile. In particular, Kalin is more likely to hear noises that damage his hearing than normal people.
Since he didn't have much change on hand and the villagers couldn't find Lindsay, Kalin only bought two days of dry food and planned to make do with it. And with Kalin's foot strength, he could run for two more days before dark on the 28th.
Arrive at Yebasa Village beforehand. However, if there are fish or animals drinking water in the small lake next to it, you can also make a tooth sacrifice to improve the food.
Following this idea, Carlin quietly walked toward the lake to see if there were any traces of wild beasts on the ground.
If there is an urgent mission or a companion has an arranged itinerary, Karin will never do anything irrelevant. But now he is only responsible for himself. In comparison, his actions appear to be free and casual.
Walking between the sparse trees, Karin recalled some vague memory fragments. These fragments pointed to Karin's childhood. When he was a child, Karin Thaddeus, who was only a little taller than the grass, and his brother received food on the prairie.
With subhuman nomadic experience, his father with a goatee can always find traces of cunning rabbits and feed his mother and sister at night.
The hunting experience outside the Wild Forest could also come in handy at this time. Karin easily found many traces, but there was no beast's lair in this area.
Carlin followed the animal trail and planned to go to the lake to try his luck and at least refill his water bottle.
The warm winter sun passed through the gaps between the leaves, creating countless swaying light spots. At this moment! A huge black shadow, carrying strong wind pressure, quickly passed over the forest where Kalin was located, towards the small lake not far away.
A lot of yellowing leaves were blown away, reducing the number of light spots and expanding their scope.
Karin held his breath and let his thoughts go, remaining motionless and hiding behind the tree trunk. The hunter with yellow-brown scales, that is, the flying dragon, landed on the edge of the lake, absorbing the water needed for its huge body.
It was also the first time for Karin to see a normal dragon. Before, they were all corrupted by unclean creatures or evil things.
The flying dragon folded its wings and stretched its slender neck toward the water. The top hunter did not think that any magical beast that was good at hiding its aura would dare to make a sneak attack. In other words, this was a great opportunity for Carlin to make a sneak attack.
Karin stayed hidden and carefully observed the distance between the dragon and himself, and whether there were any traces on the body that did not belong to nature.
Karin slowly poked his head out. This huge creature was fifteen meters long, twelve feet wide, and fifteen feet tall without spreading its wings. It should be said that it was truly a dragon. Viewed from the back, every part of this creature was
Every inch of his body is perfectly protected by dragon scales.
Kalin quietly took out a dwarf ballista and a cutter to see if the obstacles in front would allow him to continue sneaking.
However, although there are some sparse trees, instead of being used as a shield, when the flying dragon is facing away, the fallen leaves under its feet will only hinder the approach. The lakeside is wet soil, and there are two big pits under the flying dragon's hind paws.
.
A few lonely leaves did not get the opportunity to return to their roots in advance with the other companions dancing with the flying dragon, and were floating quietly on the water at this time.
